South Africa have included batsman Rassie van der Dussen in its squad for the first two one-day internationals against Pakistan this month.
Van der Dussen is uncapped in ODIs but made his international debut for the Proteas in a Twenty20 series against Zimbabwe last year.
He made a half-century in his first international innings in that series.
Van der Dussen will likely be auditioning for a place at the cricket World Cup in England and Wales starting in May.
So will seam bowler Dane Paterson, who earned a recall in the 14-man squad announced on Thursday.
